At a a meeting of the Board of Trustees on Monday, the « 18th inst., the resignation of Dr. Alexander « Means (who has accepted the Presidency of the s Masonic Female College at Covington) was re- t ceived and accepted, and Professor Darby, of 1 Culloden, Ga., elected to fill the vacant Chair a position for which he is pre-eminently quali fied. Professor Darby has been long and favor- 1 ably known to the friends of education in Geor- i gia as a proficient and distinguished instructor, . and his services are regarded as a valuable ac- i quisition to the College. Monday evening , there was an exhibition of.de clamation by the Sophomore Class, who acquit ted themselves handsomely, evincing a proficien cy in the art of declamation rarely attained at so early an age. Prizes were awarded to Mr. Muse, ot S. C., and Mr. Rylander, of Georgia, and presented by Prof. L. M. Smith, in a taste ful address delivered in a manner to intently engage the attention of the audience. Tuesday morning , was the exhibition of the Junior Class, the speeches of which were quite creditable to themselves and commendable for the moral tone that pervaded the whole. Tn the afternoon the audience had the pleasure of listening to a speech from the President, Rev. Dr. Geo. F. Pierce, who invariably attracts a crowds. The Doctors was a theme with which his friends have become familiar, the collection of money for the completion of the payment for the new College Building and other necessary expenditures of the College, and certainly no man I has a greater facility in unloosening the purse j strings of his friends. A proposition was made j by the eloquent speaker to be one of ten to give j one hundred dollars each to the College, which j proposition was immediately responded to by the Hon. Robert Toombs, with a subscription of four hundred dollars, and in the space of a few minutes a collection of twenty-five hundred dol lars was made from the audience present, thus realizing the most sanguine hopes of the speaker. In the evening at 7J o’clock, an address was made before the Alumni of the College, by Mr. H. R. Harris. The effort fully sustained his reputation, as an agreeable and talented speaker, and was characterised by a practicability of sen timent and appropriateness. ’ ""'Wednesday, the 20th inst., commencement day, the exercises opened with the Senior exhibition, 1 the speeches of which class, showed a range of ’ thought and purity of style, that would have ■ done honor to older heads. T’ilis class is con sidered one tlie most promising that has ever left the walls of Emory College. The Bac calaureate of President Pierce, was after the manner of his unsurpassed style , after which 1 the Degree of Master of Arts, was conferred on . Messrs. A. W. Rowland, Geo. Y. Banks and . others, and the Degree of Doctor of Divinity, on the Rev. B. Jenkins, Missionary from the Methodist Episcopal Church South to China. At ; 4 o’clock in the afternoon, the audience again as sembled, and were delighted and instructed with a speech from the Honorable Robert Toombs. Although many were disappointed with the ’ subject of the speech, all awarded to it the praise 1 of being replete with interesting information much needed at this particular crisis of public affairs. Thus closed the commencement of i Emory College, with its auspices never so bright at any former j eriod of its existence—perhaps no College for the same period of its existence ; and the number bf its graduates, has enriched society with riper scholars and more useful citi zens than Emory. May she live (as she doubt less will.) to extend her usefulness in an increased and tenfold proportion. b. Oxford, July 20tu, IS-33. Railroad Meeting in Warren. July 18th, 1853. Pursuant to appointment by Marshall H. Wellborn, Esq., Chairman of the previous meet ing, a large and respectable portion of the citi zens of Warren county met at the Court House, to take into consideration the subject of aiding in the construction of a Railroad from Warren ton to Macon via Spartaand Milledgeville. E. H. Pottle. Esq., at the request of the Chair man, explained the object of the meeting, and made an eloquent and convincing speech in fa vor of the proposed Road; showing that the stock of the Road would be more profitable than almost any other investment. Wm. Gibson, Esq., addressed the meeting to thesame effect; showing that the county very much needed the link wanted by the construc tion of this Road. J. M. Jones, Esq., also addressed the meeting for a short time, but much to the purpose. E. H. Pottle, Esq., then offered the following preamble and resolutions, which were unani mously adopted : Whereas, It is in contemplation to build a Railroad, connecting the city of Macon with the town of Warrenton or some other eligible point on the Georgia Railroad, via Milledgeville and Sparta under a charter granted for the purpose, by the General Assembly of the State, passed in 1537 and amended in 1847 and 1850; and Whereas, the citizens of Warren county, in terested in all the public improvements of the day, and desirous of aiding in the above enter prise, if it can be accomplished upon conditions hereafter specified ; Therefore Resolved, That, as the citizens of Warren coun ty feel a lively interest in the projection of the proposed Road between the city of Macon and the Georgia Railroad, we will aid in said enter prise ; provided Warren be made the point of junction. Resolved, That upon said condition, we will use our best exertions to have procured subscrip tions of stock in said road, commensurate with our ability. Resolved, That the Chairman appoint a com mittee of five for the purpose of attending a call ed meeting at Sparta to determine upon the route over which’said Road will be built, and that said committee be instructed to oppose any termination except such as indicated in the first resolution. The committee anpointed for that purpose are E. H. Pottfo, J. M. Robprts, E. Cody, J. M. Jones and Wm. Gibson, Esqrs On motion of J. M. Jorips. Esq., Resolved, That tbp Chainv'an hnvp power to call a meeting whenever he may deem it neces sary, for the furtherance of the object in view. Resolved , That the proceedings of this meeting be published in the Augusta, Milledgeville and Maco:.’ papers. On motion, the meeting adjourned, sine die. M. H. WELLBORN, Chairman. Andrew Jackson, Secretary. Bibb County Democracy. —lt was a source of unmingled pleasure, (says the Griffin Jeffer sonian,) to our Democratic brethren abroad to peruse the proceedings of late Democratic Meet ings of our friends in Bibb county, which seems to have been diffused, with such noble, generous and catholic feelnigs. Our spirits buoyed, and our eyes brightened, as they lit upon the name of that sterling and honored Democrat, General Armstrong, as chairman of the convention ; and that of the Hon. Carlton B. Cole, whose ability and devotion to the Democratic doctrines, con tributed so largely to our success in Southern and Western Georgia. It is auspicious that the asperities of the past, will be lost in the en thusiasm and friumphs of the future, and that the cloud which so recently hung like a pall upon our hopes, and our destinies, has passed away, and relumined our hearts with the per ennial light of peace and joy. Her “ flag bear ers” tell us “ Bibb never breaks ranks,” and if she is but half true to herself, she will lead the Democracy of Central Georgia. Bravo! Bravo ! three cheers to old Bibb ! We publish in another column a communica tion from a “ Scott Whig,” repudiating the Con servative Convention, and the nominee, Mr. Jenkins. We don’t know how far this feeling extends, but we learn from private letter, that a Convention is contemplated at Macon, for the purpose of putting out a Third Candidate and adopting the Whig National platform. Should they do this, they will occupy the position, of the Tertium Quids of last year, and may be forced to take Mr. Toombs’ remark, (which they jeered so muclj) that “ Conventions are not binding, but only advisory,” as true; a proposi tion which was very much scouted by the Scott men, but in politics, propositions are as often traps as truths and possibly this may be the view of our correspondent and his party—at least they may wish to pay Mr. Toombs in his own coin. Sandcnville Georgian. Universal Exhibition in Paris. —Official information has been received at the Sate depart ment in Washington, that goods, the importation of which is prohibited in France, will not only be admitted at the Universal Exhibition whicj is to be opened in Paris in 1855, but after t'ha exhibition they may, at the option of the ex hibitors, be either re-exported free of all duties or delivered for interior consumption by paying a duty of thirty per cent, on the value. High Price for Tobacco. —Mr. D. E. Franklin, of Campbell county, Va., sold last week to Wm. T. Booker, Esq., of Lynchburg, two hogsheads of tobacco, one at sllO per cwt. and the other at $32 50 per cwt. Mr. Franklin also recently sold another hogshead at $49 75, and Mr. John D. Alexander, of the same coun ty, one at SIOO, and another at $75 per cwt. This tobacco is to be sent to the Crystal Palace exhibition. Porter’s Rifle. —The Nashville Banner says that Capt. Porter, of Memphis, the inventor of the celebrated rifle which bears his name, has sold his interest, one-half to ex-Gov. Jones, of Tennessee, for $70,000, and that Gov. Jones is in Washington, organizing a company with a capital of SBOO,OOO. A Turn of Fortune’s Wheel. — A hard working and industrious American family, the father of which is a coal-heaver and the mother a washer-woman, residing in Boston, has just received information that a brother of the form er recently died in Calcutta, leaving them the very acceptable sum of $25,0p0. The family comprises several children. The Journal of Commerce tells the following story: One incident in the procession, trifling in it self, occasioned a good deal of amusement. When Gen. Pierce had got as far up as the head of Wall street, his horse became restive, and came in collision with the animal rode by General Sand ford. As the President was riding with his hat in hand, the Hat received the brunt of the shock, and suffered severely, being badly stove in and indented. The General was too much engaged to notice the catastrophe, and soon put on the hat in its unfortunate condition, and retained it in its place for about a block, ex citing roars of laughter among the boys. Another Accident at the Hippodrome.— On Thursday evening, while the French per formers were riding in the hurdle race at the New York Hippodrome, the horse of M,lle Caroline, in attempting to leap one of the hurd les, stumbled and fell heavily upon the young lady, one of his hoofs striking her head. She was picked up insensible and carried from the ring. A tiiift in the Crystal Ptlace. —Or. Fri day evening, one of the workmen employed in the Crystal Palace, when going home, stole a piece of sheet lead and packed it up in a parcel, and was conveying it out when an officer of the Palace arrested him. A pickpocket has also been arrested in the building. A Present. —Rev. Rufus W. Griswold has presented to Mr Linus Benedict, of Norwalk, (who saved the life of his daughter, at the Nor walk calamity, after she was supposed to be drowned,) a very costly gold watch and appen dages as an evidence of his gratitude and that of his family, for his extraordinary and successful efforts on that occasion. Let the Bloomers Alone. Will ye ?—A young lady, a Bloomer, recently married at Oris keney, N. Y., was “horned’’ by some of the village rowdies. She fired a gun over their heads, and they ran away. Being taunted by some of the villagers with the fact, they resolved to try it over. This they did the next night, and challenged the girl to shoot again, calling her a liar. &c. On this, the young woman fired once more above them ; but they laughed her to scorn and at last, goaded to indignation, she sent a charge of shot rattling about their brainless pates, and, wounded and limping, howling and cursing, they retreated in confusion. The Tract Society of the M. E. Church in New York, offers the sum of S3OO for an Essay on Systematic Benificence, with particular ref erence to the philanthropic finances of the Meth odist Episcopal Church. The length, it is sta ted. should not much exceed one hundred pages duodecimo. They must he sent in previous to the Ist of Japnarv next.
